Client and Server Version Compatibility#
Are client and server versions linked?
Yes, the client and server versions are linked. Newer server versions are designed to maintain compatibility with older client versions to ensure continued functionality for users who have not updated their client software.
Can an older version client work with a newer version server?
In most cases, an older version client can work with a newer version server for basic operations. However, major server version updates may introduce features or functionalities that require an updated client. In such instances, the older client may not be able to access these new features, and you may receive a prompt to upgrade the client.
Can a newer version client work with an older version server?
No, a newer version client may not work with an older version server. Newer clients often rely on features or functionalities not supported by older server versions, which can result in compatibility issues and prevent the client from functioning properly.
Always ensure that both client and server versions are compatible for optimal functionality.

API Calls in the Application#
How are API calls made in Apidog?
In Apidog, API calls are generally made client-side, meaning your browser sends requests directly to the API endpoints. However, when using the Cloud Agent feature in the Apidog web application, API requests are routed through your self-hosted Cloud Agent instance running in a Docker container.
